“My dog Zoë had love at first sight when she met Lisa! Usually reserved with new people, in this case Zoë was almost instantly soliciting pets and offering licks! In the photos Lisa sent while I was gone, I could see Zoë was totally at ease, well taken care of, & much loved. Lisa was a perfect sitter: trustworthy, responsive, flexible, responsible, on time, and vigilant. She even notified me of a potential health issue! I would wholeheartedly recommend Lisa & will definitely call on her again in the future!”


“It was a pleasure having Deborah sit with our 14 year old pup Dexter. Deborah quickly responded to our initial inquiry and met with Dex and I shortly afterwards. She communicated the day before her scheduled sit and arrived promptly at an agreed upon time. She asked all the appropriate questions about feeding, Dexter's daily routine, and what she could do to keep him comfortable during our absence. Deborah communicated during her sit to let us know that all was well. We returned to a happy dog and a tidy house. Would recommend Deborah and we will be using her services again.”


“Kimberly has gone above and beyond to ensure the safety and happiness of my fur babies. While I was on vacation, there was a tsunami alert where my home is. She was quick to action by putting together a go bag of all my dogs’ essentials, and had coordinated plan in case she needed to keep them in her home temporarily. She also provided regular updates, giving me such great peace of mind while I’m gone. I recommend her to all my dog parent friends ❤️”


“Rebecca was incredible and saved us from a huge ordeal after someone cancelled on us the day before a big trip to dog-sit. She responded promptly, was obviously very comfortable around animals and spoke fondly of her families doggies. She has a LOVELY, happy energy and I would highly recommend :)”


“Anna is amazing! We received so many updates with pictures throughout the days we were gone. When we returned home our house was spotless and our pup was happy and tired! We will definitely be continuing to use Anna for our sittings.”


About: With over 10 years of professional housesitting and a lifetime of pet care, I specialize in attentive in home care, especially of seniors, cats, and puppies needing extra love and care. I rarely leave pets I’m sitting to reduce anxiety, administer medications reliably and treat your fur babies like my own. Responsible, experienced and always on time. 🐶🐱 I’m currently retired and do pet sitting full time. I’ve just moved back to the coast and am missing my numerous pets clients from North Carolina. I’m available 7 days a week so your pets are my priority. I do a meet and greet prior to your house sit so I can meet your fur babies, obtain their care routine(s) and cater to their specific needs.


“Jessie took wonderful care of our two pups and cat while we were away. He communicated daily and spent a lot of time with our fur kids, who always have separation anxiety while we are gone. We would recommend using Jesse for overnight stays.”


“Awesome communicator and very sweet to work with. Lola and Rooney seemed very relaxed and happy when we returned and the home was left in great condition. Would recommend and rebook!”


“Kaylee was fabulous house/pet sitting with our 2 dogs and 4 cats for four days. Followed instructions to the ‘T’ and went above beyond; very communicative and reassuring.”


“Abby was professional, friendly, and great with our dog! She sent photos and updates while we were gone. Our dog was relaxed and happy when we returned home - could t ask for better!”


“Jamil was both kind and professional. And for Taco and Addie it was love at first site! I’ve honestly never seen my dogs more comfortable around a sitter before. Jamil made it a point to communicate! The consistent updates throughout her stay were great (and super cute). She was also very flexible with my busy schedule. As far as in home care, both my dogs and my home we’re in perfect order when I returned. Overall, Jamil was a great choice for me and my dogs and I plan to use her again in the future. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and responsible dog sitter/walker.”


“Taylor is so wonderful with our spoiled little boy. He has a sensitive little heart and takes him a minute to get used to people, but they were really good with him and we got pics and updates🐾❤️”


“Rene was terrific with Reba. She made sure she was well exercised and took great care of her. Reba was so relaxed when she greeted me which means she was a very happy dog. Thank you Rene!”


“Madalynn stepped in when we had two previous Rovers cancel the week of our plans. We are thankful we found someone who took such good care of our energetic pup on short notice. Our home was spotless as well. Thank you!”


“Jessica was super helpful and super nice with with my dogs! I had a mishap with my schedule and she was able to work with me and even offered to give money back when I let her know less then a day in advance! I know my dogs can be a handful sometimes but I did not get one complaint from her, so I would highly recommend and rebook anytime!”
